The Conservatives are boasting about cleaning the rivers and beaches and irony is stone dead
Before their time was taken up boasting about making Brexit slightly less crap in Northern Ireland, the Conservatives posted a video to let us all know how they’re cleaning up the rivers and beaches.
We’re cleaning up our rivers and beaches, here’s how.👇 pic.twitter.com/CXBe4JtLBI

Er …
Quite apart from the fact that it’s a list of four things but says it’s five, there were shades of this about it.
These tweets absolutely nailed it.

Just because someone says something, doesn't make it true.
The conservatives are cleaning up our (previously clean) waterways.

"Four."

From the people who brought you ‘We’re fixing the NI Brexit deal that we messed up’ …
So if I’ve got this right…the Tories are now claiming to be fixing an economy (that they broke), cleaning waterways (that they allowed to be filled with sewage) & cutting NHS waiting lists (that went through the roof on their watch)
And they want another 5 years?
